Trademarkable Cartoon Seagull Illustrations
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’m commissioning an original, trademark-ready cartoon seagull that will become the core character for a new line of T-shirts. The first milestone is a clean, standalone illustration of the bird itself—no props, no background—so I can lock down the trademark application. Once that base design is approved, I’ll need additional versions of the same seagull in action poses for Surfing, Basketball, Soccer and, over time, most other popular sports.
The look I’m after is light-hearted and instantly likeable: think bold outlines, expressive eyes and a style that translates well to screen printing at various sizes. I am not interested in realistic or abstract treatments; the charm must come from a distinctly cartoonish personality that can be reused again and again.
Attached is a prototype.
Key deliverables
• Master character artwork in editable vector format (AI or EPS) plus a high-resolution transparent PNG
• Three sports variations now—surfing, basketball and soccer—each supplied as separate vector files
• All intellectual-property rights transferred to me upon final payment so I can trademark and reproduce the design freely
Acceptance criteria
• 100 % original work that passes a reverse-image search
• Consistent line weight, color palette and proportions across every pose
• Ready for print at 300 dpi with colors limited to a practical screen-printing palette
If this sounds like the kind of character design you love to create, I’m ready to review your portfolio and get the first sketch underway.
